Our Impact

Since 1978 The Wayland High School Scholarship Committee has been helping students who show academic promise and demonstrate financial need achieve their full potential. In 2026 we awarded $100,000 to 23 deserving seniors. This year we hope to have more money available, and we hope that more students will apply.

We give awards to Wayland residents, students who attend WHS through the METCO program, students who are going on to two- and four-year colleges, and students who are doing other post-graduate work in an accredited program.

We have 51 named awards, which have been created in memory/honor of community members or employees of the Wayland Public Schools. You can donate to any of these named awards, to the Quarter Century award in honor of a favorite retiring teacher, or to the general endowment. 

Our scholarship recipients proudly represent Wayland at prestigious academic institutions, including:
